The Clutter Must Go project~ Day 5

YA!!!!  It's Friday:)

This is the last day to work on decluttering our living room. 

For today's declutter challenge, it depends on where you are to determine what to do today:

If you have followed from the beginning, your living room is decluttered and you love the way it looks, then today's challenge for you is to make sure everything has a home and is neat and the way you want it.  Use today to vacuum the floor, vacuum behind the couch, dust your entertainment center, pictures and ceiling fan, Windex your living room windows and Windex your glass front door.  Then your living room transformation will be complete.  The rest of the day is yours.  Sit, relax and have a moment (or if you have kids a tiny second) and give yourself a big pat on the back for a job well done.  Smile- you stuck with it and it has paid off:)

For the rest of us who have a busy schedule and just couldn't get it all done.  Today is a make up day for us.  Start with wall #1 and do the things you may have missed.  The same with wall #2, #3 & #4.  Do what you can with the time you have.  Don't stress if you don't have enough time to do it all.  It is OK.

For those of us with small children, we can pick up and clean up until we turn blue in the face and then the tornado blows through and toys all over the floor.  No biggie- I have learned to accept the fact that my living room may not always look presentable.  But I do believe that by decluttering, we will have less stuff all over the floor and will make it easier to pick up when someone unexpectedly shows up.

Well there you have it, your assignments for today:)  Have fun and lets get our houses and lives in the order we want them to be in.

Come back this evening to see how we did and to let me know how you did.
